Soft microgel particles inherently possess qualities of both polymers as well as particles. We
review the similarities and differences between soft microgel particles and stiff colloids at …

The research focus of the foams has recently been shifting from using inorganic materials to
biological origin materials (especially edible materials) for stabilization. The motivation for …

Surfactants–molecules and particles that preferentially adsorb to fluid interfaces–play a
ubiquitous role in the fluids of industry, of nature and of life. Since most surfactants cannot be …

Fluid–fluid interfaces, laden with polymers, particles or other surface-active moieties, often
show a rheologically complex response to deformations, in particular when strong lateral …

The physical properties of lipid bilayers comprising the cell membrane occupy the current
spotlight of membrane biology. Their traditional representation as a passive 2D fluid has …

During emulsification and further processing (eg, pasteurizing), the oil–water interface is
mechanically and thermally stressed, which can lead to oil droplet aggregation and …

Foam and emulsion stability has long been believed to correlate with the surface shear
viscosity of the surfactant used to stabilize them. Many subtleties arise in interpreting surface …

The surfactant lining the walls of the alveoli in the lungs increases pulmonary compliance
and prevents collapse of the lung at the end of expiration. In premature born infants …

We review recent work on active colloids at interfaces, including self-propelled colloids that
move by generating a propulsive force, and driven colloids that move under external fields …

The goal of this study was to increase in vivo microbubble circulation persistence for
applications in medical imaging and targeted drug delivery. Our approach was to investigate …
